Hey All,

Quick and dumb.

Does it matter if your expanded steel fire basket is rusty?

Should I treat it like cast iron and oil it?

Thanks,
Bret

No problem, just knock off loose rust. You can use Pam cooking spray to oil it if you want.

I would just knock off what you can, it will look totally different after you do a preliminary burn on it before you cook.
